Is it possible to use sub folders in drawables in Android?

Issue

In my application I have several folders and subfolders of images. They are inside drawables. How can I retrieve images from drawables subfolders?

Example:

drawable>actions>sports>soccer.png

How can I get this "soccer.png" photo?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Solution

No, the android resources mechanism doesn't support subfolders in the drawable directory, you can't put it.

I think if you having a subfolder with any items in it, within the res/drawable folder, will cause the resource compiler to fail -- preventing the R.java file from being generated correctly.

The only one thing is put the images in flat names like, drawable_actions_sports_soccer.png.
